One is in a terracotta pot with drainage and the other is in a plastic pot without drainage. Any suggestions are appreciated! ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/LAin9rR0inhnkViP8ZBN_M-ZITfb9tPARpKO-QdSRno/99ae74f9d79a4ef789e3620eec6735c7.webp?size=large) ## 10件のコメント ### Sunnyさんが2024-01-14にコメントしました All the pots need drainage or you will get root rot. The terracotta pot looks like overwatering as well based on on the dark color of the stems’ base. The soil also looks like it was growing fungus at one time or that is salts/minerals from the soil. I recommend getting rid of that soil. Check for root rot and remove, if any. Rinse roots with hydrogen peroxide to kill bacteria. Let the roots dry for a few hours to form callouses and prevent bacterial infection. Use premium potting mix with less compost-like soil. Water when the soil is almost dry or fully dries out. It looks a little limp when it needs water. Indirect bright light works well with those two varieties. Less light shows less color. I use Osmocote fertilizer granules. ### Jenny Rさんが2024-01-14にコメントしました I also have a Tradescandia “Bubblegum” (purple plant) !! Definitely needs drainage holes to avoid root rot, and I water them much less in winter because they’re a tropical plant \& should be treated like succulents (depending on where you’re located). I also give them food about once a month especially in winter. As you water less, the purple will darken as well! Hope this helps! ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/Mf9qy3eaeO6d1OjWivEGE4ZS-cBvqWrN_mFRo5izFzk/1453fedebf1c4e46a9335e0dedf016dc.webp?size=large) #### Waytoplantさんが2024-01-14に返信しました Do you wait for yours to dry out completely before watering? #### Waytoplantさんが2024-01-14に返信しました Is that a high sun window? #### Jenny Rさんが2024-01-15に返信しました Yes I feel the soil as I go, and it gets sunlight for about 8-9 hours a day, directly and indirectly! #### Waytoplantさんが2024-01-15に返信しました You let it dry out completely before watering? #### Jenny Rさんが2024-01-16に返信しました usually yes, sometimes i will water it if only some parts of soil feel damp (and it looks like it needs the water) ### Lindsay in PAさんが2024-01-14にコメントしました Thank you everyone! ### Plant Fatherさんが2024-01-14にコメントしました looks like overwatering and not enough light. if you’re using a moisture meter, those things are known for being inaccurate and unreliable, many have killed their plants relying on them. t. zebrina specifically is a shimmery pinkish purple when it receives enough light. picture to follow #### Plant Fatherさんが2024-01-14に返信しました mine are under a 12-hour grow light and very purple and happy ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/cY9SDweddqu5HwLKnArK26cVuNWlPSTffMn9ElYkfbk/503b6dcec21045c4bcd08a0f9dae4c4a.webp?size=large) --- _Plantaコミュニティ (https://getplanta.com)。閲覧はどなたでも可能です。投稿、コメント、いいねをするには、Plantaアプリをダウンロードしてください: https://getplanta.com/download_
